K-Drama My Eyes Out
WISHING EVERYONE A FABULOUS 2024! Judy and Linda struggle to make sense of episodes 13-16 of "Strong Girl Nam Soon" (힘쎈여자 강남순), the JTBC drama, starring Lee YooMi, Ong SeongWoo, and Kim JungEun. We're going to shake off the bad vibes of this drama with the remnants of 2023 and go forward into 2024 with "Daily Dose of Sunshine" starring Park BoYoung!

KDMEO Episode 197 - Strong Girl Nam Soon (힘쎈여자 강남순) 7-12
K-Drama My Eyes Out
IT'S FARTY TIME. Judy and Linda continue their voluntary self-torture by covering episodes 7-12 of "Strong Girl Nam Soon" (힘쎈여자 강남순), the JTBC drama, starring Lee YooMi, Ong SeongWoo, and Kim JungEun. If this drama has such high ratings, how come we don't have 23.7 million listeners? Some Korean terms: 나 잡아봐라: [nah-jab-ah-bwa-rah] "Try to catch me!"; this used to be a cringey cliche from Korean dramas in the 80s. 여인천하: [yeo-in-cheon-hah] literally "women's world"; "Ladies of the Palace", a 2001 sageuk about Queen...

WOMEN DELIVERY PEOPLE? NO F-ING WAY. Judy and Linda continue ranting about episodes 3-6 of "Strong Girl Nam Soon" (힘쎈여자 강남순), the JTBC drama, starring Lee YooMi, Ong SeongWoo, and Kim JungEun.

KDMEO Episode 195 - Strong Girl Nam Soon (힘쎈여자 강남순) 1-2
K-Drama My Eyes Out
THAT'S NOT HOW SCIENCE WORKS! Judy and Linda dive straight into the first two episodes of "Strong Girl Nam Soon" (힘쎈여자 강남순), the JTBC drama, starring Lee YooMi, Ong SeongWoo, and Kim JungEun. Sorry we had to abandon the First Impressions episode, but we really wanted to pick a drama and just delve into it, instead of demurring any longer. We are going to try our best to record every two weeks, we swear! Digressions: 1:17 - New Patreon donor and Listener E-mail! 18:55 - DID YOU KNOW JO JINWOONG WAS IN EPISODE 1 OF "The Good Bad Mother" (나쁜엄마)? Judy...
info_outlineWE HAVE THOUGHTS. Judy and Linda mourn episodes 13-16 of "Twenty-Five, Twenty-One" (스물다섯, 스물하나), starring Kim TaeRi and Nam JooHyuk. It was great while it lasted.
Our next episode will be about the popular series, "Business Proposal" (사내 맞선) starring Kim SeJeong, Ahn HyoSeop, Kim MinKyu and Seol InAh. If you have suggestions for the Spring First Impressions episode, you know where you contact us!
Digressions:
1:26 - Listener E-mails!
16:22 - Both Judy *and* Linda watched the second season of "Bridgerton". It was definitely better than the first season, but it does become slightly tedious near the end. But the dresses!!!
22:07 - Judy watched "Turning Red", and it was fine. Perhaps Pixar has set our expectations too high, but somehow the ending felt trite to us. Is it too much for an animated movie to fix our real-life issues?
25:19 - Linda is almost done with "Business Proposal" (사내 맞선), and we'll be doing a special episode on it in two weeks.
26:38 - Judy is enjoying the newest looter shooter from 2K, "Tiny Tina's Wonderlands". It's lighthearted goofy fun! Obviously, Judy's main is a Stabbomancer.
28:42 - "Moon Knight" is the newest Marvel series on Disney+. It's disorienting at times (on purpose), but so interesting!
55:25 - What are we gonna watch now?
Some Korean terms:
매국노: [meh-gook-no] traitor that has sold out one's country.
짜장면 [jja-jang-myeon]: black bean noodles; a favourite delivery food for Koreans.
이쁜이: [ee-ppeun-ee] cutie.
함부로 말하지마: [ham-boo-roh-mal-ha-jee-ma] "Don't say things you're going to regret"; literally "don't talk recklessly".
싸가지 없어: [ssa-ga-ji-up-suh] impolite; lacking in manners.
